Chapter 9: Collapse at the touch of a button

The first one of the horse thieves, a jujube red horse in the crotch, the back of the horse is nearly a foot higher than the war horses of other horse thieves around him, it looks like a very divine horse, and there is a bearded man sitting on the horse, this person sits on the horse, just looking at the upper body is larger than the others, like an iron tower, and ordinary horses can't carry him.

This big man took the lead, and when he saw the enemies waiting in front of him, he was taken aback, only to see that the hundreds of enemies were all wearing metal armor with a cold light, such a situation was rarely seen even in the army of the King of the North Sea, unless it was a general's own soldiers who had such sophisticated equipment.

As soon as the big man reined in his horse, he waved his hand and ordered the army to stop.

How could the thousands of cavalry say stop, and they ran forward hundreds of meters in a mess before they stopped unevenly, and the horse thieves all looked at the master strangely.

The second master stopped the horse, and a lean man who ran beside him was not weak in riding, followed him and stopped the horse, trotted to the side of the second master, and asked: "Second brother, why did they stop, they are only so few people, we can crush them with a charge." ”

The second master pointed to the phalanx and said: "Old Seven, look at those soldiers, everyone is wearing armor, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with." ”

The lean man took a closer look and was also a little surprised.

Originally running side by side with the lean man was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with five locks of long beard, but wearing leather armor, and was not civil.

The middle-aged man was not good at riding, and rushed out of dozens of meters before he reined in the horse, and then turned around and ran back, spitting ash while asking, "Second master, what's wrong?" ”

The second master said: "Uncle, you read a lot, come and see, these people are well-armoured." I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with? ”

The middle-aged man tried his best to control the horses under his crotch, stretched out his hand to build a pergola, observed for a moment, pondered for a moment, and suddenly sneered and said, "The second master." It doesn't matter, these people are wearing such heavy armor, they must be unable to move, and the second master only needs to take the brothers who are skilled in bows and horses, gallop around this formation, and they will definitely be able to break this formation. ”

When the second master heard this, he suddenly felt reasonable, laughed, patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said, "Okay." My eldest brother stayed behind and carried me into battle. ”

After speaking, he said to the lean man: "Old Seven, call the brothers who are good at riding and shooting, and we will go up." ”

With that, he patted his horse and ran forward slowly.

The lean man immediately turned his horse's head and galloped through the procession, showing his superb riding skills.

After a while, the lean man picked out three or four hundred horse thieves with better riding skills from among the horse thieves, and followed the second master to rush towards the phalanx.

These more than 300 horse thieves with excellent riding skills rushed to the phalanx more than 100 meters. Suddenly, there was a twist and he galloped around the phalanx. While galloping, shrinking the circle of Mercedes.

In fact, the range of the heavy crossbows in the phalanx was far more than a hundred meters, but Bai Qi was slow to give the order to shoot.

The private soldiers of these families who followed Andre on his voyage were all veterans who had been baptized by war, and there was no order from Bai Qi. They were all calm and looked coldly at the galloping horse thief.

The short range used by horse thieves is not far, with ordinary arrows, the range is barely 100 meters, but ordinary arrows. There is little threat to the phalanx of heavy armor for everyone, and it is necessary to replace the armor-piercing heavy arrows, but the weight of the armor-piercing heavy arrows is much larger than that of ordinary arrows, and the range is within 50 meters, and 30 meters is the best.

Seeing that the circle of horse thieves galloping was getting smaller and smaller, and gradually approaching the range of fifty meters, the horse thieves drew out special armor-piercing heavy arrows one after another, and took arrows and bent bows......

Bai Qi grabbed the tower shield, raised it high, thrust it into the dirt fiercely, and then kicked back with one leg, putting his shoulders on the shield.

Bai Qi's movements were like an order, and the entire phalanx made a defensive posture in a uniform manner.

All the heavy infantry inserted their shields into the soil, and the spearmen in the back row also squatted down, the tail of the spear in their hands was inserted into the soil, and the tip of the spear rose forty-five degrees, forming two terrible spear-tip defense lines in front of the shield, and the sword and shield men inside raised their shields one after another, forming a barrier above the phalanx to prevent the enemy's projectile attack, and all the heavy crossbowmen, longbowmen, as well as Barian and Qin Qing squatted down.

More than 300 horsemen and thieves fired hundreds of arrows, but only for a crackling sound.

Although there was no result, seeing that the infantry phalanx could only defend, the horse thieves became more and more rampant, and the radius of the gallop became smaller and smaller, and even some bold horse thieves rushed to a position seven or eight meters away from the phalanx, showing off their martial arts and showing off their riding skills.

Even many veterans in the phalanx couldn't stand it, but Bai Qi kept holding back and didn't give orders.

Although the infantry phalanx was like a turtle shell, it was also a thorny turtle shell, and although the horse thieves were arrogant, they did not dare to really rush up, so they could only gallop around the phalanx and howl.

Seeing that the team of horse thieves was getting longer and longer in the gallop, and the radius was getting smaller and smaller, and the entire team was almost finished, at this time, Bai Qi finally shouted the order to attack.

With Bai Qi's order, all the sword and shield hands rotated the light shield in their hands slightly, revealing small gaps in the shield wall.

The heavy crossbowman, the longbowman, who had already lost his breath, shot deadly arrows from the gaps in his shield.

The heavy crossbows in the hands of the heavy crossbowmen are all heavy crossbows that are pedaled on the feet and rely on the strength of the waist to raise the arrow.

It requires a first-level warrior to step on the slave, and the power of this crossbow can be imagined!

The longbows in the hands of the longbowmen are all enchanted weapons, plus the longbows are all at the level of warriors above the third level, and the arrows they shoot are not even much worse than the heavy crossbows, and more importantly, the longbows shoot three times faster than the heavy crossbows, and the shooting speed of twenty longbowmen is comparable to that of eighty heavy crossbowmen.

The soldiers of the Vogostein Guard are all elite in a hundred battles, almost all of them are fighters above the second level, not only with exquisite skills, but also with first-class psychological quality, and the hit rate of a hundred arrows shot in the first round is almost nine cities.

More than 300 horse thieves fell off their horses in one fell by a third!

The sudden blow blinded the horse thieves, and when they reacted, a second wave of heavy crossbow arrows came......

By the time the horse thieves were scrambling around the docks to escape, it was just in time for the third round of heavy crossbow arrows......

Faster than the heavy crossbow was the longbow, which fired three rounds, and each longbow had already fired almost ten arrows......

In just a dozen seconds, the more than 300 horse thieves who were still extremely arrogant just now galloped around the phalanx to provoke, all of them fell off their horses, and none of them were spared, even the ghost horse and the second master were not spared, and they were shot in the first round of arrow rain under the fire of the two mages, Barian and Qin Qing, and four or five longbowmen with practical enchanted armor-piercing arrows.
